It should be noted that the only winner of the Golden Ball in the history of independent Ukraine is Andrii Shevchenko, who was recognized as the best football player in the world in 2004. The last time Shevchenko was nominated for this award was in 2006, so Dovbyk became the first Ukrainian in the last 18 years to be on the list of contenders for the honorary prize.
